the u.s., but not everybody is embracing it. how come? yeah. so pickleball is america s fastest growing sport over the last three years. there are about 9 million pickleball players in the u.s. that jumped about 150% from pre-pandemic levels. folks really like pickleball because it s fun, it s social, it s a little bit easier than tennis, the court s a little smaller. but not everybody loves it. neighbors are frustrated with the noise. it s kind of a popping sound that you hear. tennis players are upset because the pickleball courts are taking over the tennis courts. you see more cities and towns start to restrict the growth of pickleball. i spoke with some pickleball nimbys who said the noise was driving them crazy. okay. i thought i was going to hear from them.
